[LARTC] Where to store routing informations

[LARTC] Where to store routing informations

[Keller Nicolas]

Hi,

I just worked my way through the LARTC - thank you very much for this
exellent piece of documentation :) However, I've got a newbie question: 

Where should I store routing informations? Are there prefered files in
Redhat 9? /etc/sysconfig/static-routes has lost its function. I thought
about making a bash script in /usr/local/sbin and call it at startup
from /etc/rc.d/rc.local - is this a good or bad idea?

I would be very glad, if someone could share its experiences with me.
Perhaps that would also be a good point to be included in LARTC?

Bye,

Nicolas Keller

Where ever you store your info always make sure it is documented. I
usually store mine in /etc/rc.d/init.d/routing (yes i create that
directory) and start it by creating a symlink in /etc/rc3.d/.

On occassion I store them in /root/bin.

Simply put you can store them anywhere you wish, just be consistent and
document where you placed them and how they are activated on boot.

hi nicolas,

in redhat 9, it didn't loose its functionality on purpose ...

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?idu604

try a 7.1/7.3 script and you should be ok.

cheers
